Mac Pro 2012 and unacceptable - restless BLUETOOTH Magic Mouse

It is unfortunate, it is a great nuisance, is a grave error in my opnion by Apple, a person like me who spend a lot of money on a new computer and I can not work 10-12 hours a day at home, because a mouse also not cheap, drives me crazy.
I have wanted to throw the Magic Mouse out of the window.
I know the problem is the bluetooth. I have the computer to within 1 meter. And I think I've tried almost everything.
The computer is under warranty, but from what I've read on the forums, no solution ... well, yes, buy a new USB mouse :-(
By the way, I have a Mac Pro Quad-Core 2012 3.2GHz / 12GB Ram. OSX 10.6.8
I wanted to record my complaint.
Shame!

I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

TS3048 My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

I would always have a wired keyboard and mouse on hand (need not be expensive ... any cheap wired devices will work). "Emergency recovery" procedures can activate features in random order, so the opportunity to select a recovery partition may pass before the wireless devices are recognized.
That will let you select the "turn on Bluetooth" icon.

The Mac Pro will not power on when connected to the Tripp Lite LC2400. The Power Supply makes continuous clicking noises and repeatedly resets the Mac Pro every 3 seconds.
The same Mac Pro connected to an outlet with no Tripp Lite starts up with no problem.

Hi,
I've the same notebook. I've not had any hardlocks so far, but I've not seen so much flash movies yet. Anyway, I just tried closing running youtube-video tab on Kde4 + enabled desktop effects -> Everything's fine.
Anyway, perhaps we can collect some issues and solutions in this thread. Here are problems, that I encounter:
- restart does not work
- errors during boot:

Issued solved:
- in order to make nvidia graphics working you have to disable Optimius in BIOS.
- Battery not recognized -- fixed after recend updates
- grub2 does not work. As soon as grub2 loads, the laptop reboots. -> stick to grub1 -- works now (either I did sth wrong the first time or a new version of grub2 fixes this issue)
- in order to make the touchpad work properly install psmouse-elantech from AUR
update: this is only a half-solution. vertical scrolling on the right edge works but graphical tools which rely on x11-input-synpatics still don't work. However, everything works fine with kernel 3.3. Once this in the main arch repos you won't need psmouse-elantech anymore.

Yosemite and Mac Pro 2012

Ever since I updated, last Thursday, to Yosemite (on my Mac Pro 2012), I am now listed ON MY OWN COMPUTER as "Standard," not ADMINISTRATOR, which I am and have always been! Therefore, I can't open many panes in System Preferences or change any settings in it.
I have re-installed Yosemite TWICE (after restarting and/or shutting down several times) and, after the reinstall, I get the "Log In" page and NO OTHER SET UP PAGES! I can't seem to set myself up as the administrator, in order to manage my OWN computer - a Mac Pro 12-core, 2012. I even changed my password to this computer. HELP!

Bought the Iphone 6 2 days ago. My mac pro finds the phone on bluetooth but phone will not discover ANY bluetooth divices. Have hard reset the phone and restarted as well. nothing. Any suggestions or issues. This is the first apple phone I have owned. Am not very happy that Bluetooth would present a problem.

I can't help with the other devices but note that an iPhone will not pair via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7722
If you are attempting to use Handoff/Continuity, that does involve Bluetooth but the devices are NOT paired; Bluetooth just needs to be on and the devices in range of each other. The following may help with Handoff/Continuity issues: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5458

Mac Pro 2012 crashes regularly after loading Mavericks

I upgraded the OS to Mavericks, direct from Lion, on my Mac Pro 2012 computer, since when it crashes and restarts spontaneously. Herewith the reports. Can anyone offer a straightforward solution? There is no sign of Google inspired crashes, as with other users. Is Mavericks named to draw attention to its spontaneous behaviour??

Migration Assistant: Problems transferring data from PC (XP SP3) to new Mac Pro 2012 - can not get Migration Assistant to work as PC will not display verfify passcode
Hello, I am having problems migrating data from my old PC running XP (SP3) to my new Mac Pro 2012 using the Migration Assistant.
- I downloaded and installed the Windows Migration Assistant from Apple
- My Mac recognized PC and displays passcode
- The sasscode does not show / display on my PC
- My Mac is then stuck in "authenticating" loop and the PC is stuck "waiting for Mac to connect."
- Both computers are connected on same network (have connected PC on WIFI and using ethernet to Reuter)
I have looked on support site and only response I saw says to reinstall Windows Migration Assistant (which I have done)
Any ideas? If cant get this to workare there instructions for manually bring across relevant data eg itunes music and apps, photos, picasa data etc?

Why not turn off the Windows firewall and uninstall any other firewall software you have installed?
If you are using a Norton product uninstall it and discard it. To fully unistall most Norton products you have to go to the Norton website and download a soecial program to completely get rid of it. The normal uninstall feature built into the program will not remove all of it.

Need help with new Mac Pro (2012)

Hi for everyone!
Few days ago, I bought a new Mac Pro (Mid 2012) MD770LL/A for my recording studio. The workstation is really powerfull and silent, but it has one major problem for me: computer comes with pre-installed Mac OS X 10.7.3 Lion, and as I understand, I can't install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on this machine. In this case, some plug-ins and instruments, that critical for my works are unavailable for me now. For example - MusicLab RealGuitar and RealLPC thru the VST to RTAS adapter (I'm using Pro Tools in my studio) don't working correctly on a Lion OSX. Unfortunately, I can't find any solution, to fix it... Even on an official support website of that software developers. Secondary, I still need Rosetta for some applications.
In that situation, my studio can't fully work.
So, what I should do??? WHY is officialy impossible to install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on a new Mac Pro, if its components is absolutely identic with Mac Pro 2010, that supported Mac OS X Snow Leo???
Thanks!
With a big hope for a help!
Alexey

Hi!
Good news for anyone, who wants to install Mac OS X 10.6.x on a Mac Pro 2012!!!
As it turned out, the original installation DVD disc from the Mac Pro 2010, fully compatible with Mac Pro 2012! The images of DVD is quite possible to find on the Internet. Just checked on my system - boot from the fresh-burned disc, and Mac OS X 10.6.4 installed without problems! After that, updated to 10.6.8 - and it works!
Personally for me - it is great news!
Everyone have a nice day! Thanks!:-)

HT4628 I can not use the internal wireless card with my Mac pro 2012, I don't know if it is broken

I can not use the internal wireless card with my Mac pro 2012, I don't know if it is broken. The problem is happen recently, I have to use an independent wireless card now. Thanks!

When you enable Internet Sharing in OS X, you are creating a separate sub-net.
There is no option to allow this to be a simple pass-through from Ethernet to AirPort (or the other way).
The problem is easily solved by getting an inexpensive wireless router. You can replace your current router OR disable the DHCP server on the wireless router and allow the wireless clients to get an IP address from the current router.

Mac Pro 2012

I bought a new mac pro 2012-12 core w/12GB memory. I like to add 2-4GB memory sticks. In which slots should I install the 2-4GB memory sticks?
Thank you,
Richard

I bought 4-8GB memory sticks from OWC for the mac pro 2012. Installed the 8GB mem stick in slot 1,2,3,4 and the 2GB mem sticks in slot 5,6,7 and 8. booted up the mac pro and got memory slot utility message. Should install the 8GB sticks in slots 1,2,5,6 and fill the rest the 2GB sticks. Did that that and booted up the mac pro however it took over a min to boot up and thats with a SSD drive. It took about 1 min to load FCPX and it woould take forver to render. Tested the memory, tested OK . Took out the memory and reinstalled the 2GB sticks in slots 1,2,3,5,6 and 7. Rebooted the MP STRTED RIGHT UP AS DID FCPX. Sent memory back to OWC, got a refund and bought 2-4GB memory sticks from the apple store. I just want to make sure I install them in the right slots.
Thank you,

I am new here and wanting to use Audition again after being away for years, so I apologize if this is a dumb question. In previewing a training video about Audition CC it highlighted that Audition CC is now 64 bit. Before I download CC I want to be sure that the 64 bit part does not present a problem for me on my system. I do not know if my hardware is 32 or 64 bit. My question is - Will I have any compatibility issues with my hardware: Mac Pro 2012 Quad-Core & RME UFX interface and the Audition CC software? Thanks for any light you can shed on this for me.

It's not the hardware you want to worry about (that will be 64-bit capable, as all Macs are) but the software. If it's a recent Mac I don't think you'll have any problems at all, though - do they actually do a 32-bit release?
The best thing to do if you're worried about this is to download the trial version and see if that's okay.

How I got the Bluetooth Magic mouse and Aluminum keyboard to work in XP

NOTE: The following steps fixed my issue. I thought I would share what worked for me but I really don't ever visit these discussion groups. I used a combination of Sysinternal tools to isolate what was causing my issue and rectified it.
I couldn't for the life of me get the bluetooth magic mouse and keyboard working in a bootcamp'd windows xp. Here are the steps that I performed to finally get it to work. The assumptions are that you are running a clean XP build with SP3 and all windows updates installed.
1. Using a USB mouse and keyboard. Insert the OS X install disc into the drive and run through the bootcamp drivers install. (These steps are outlined at Page 12 in the Apple Boot Camp Installation Guide: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/bootcampinstall-setup.pdf). Let the installers run per apple instructions in the bootcamp installation guide. At the end it will want to reboot. Reboot the system.
2. After the system reboots login and run the Apple Software Update utility to update from bootcamp 3.1 to 3.2. It will run through a bunch of installers and ask to reboot at the end. Reboot.
3. After the system reboots login and go to start=>run and type "services.msc" to bring up the services control panel.
4. Double-click the "Bluetooth Support Service" to open the properties.
5. Go to the "log on" tab and look to see what is set. If it is set to "NT Authority\LocalService" then click above it to change to "Local System account." Then click "OK." It will tell you the changes won't take effect until the service is restarted. No worries.
6. You will be back in the main services control panel. Make sure the "Bluetooth Support Service" is highlighted and look up to the left and select "restart the service."
7. Close all the open windows and then go to start=>run and type "control panel" and hit enter.
8. Double-click the "Bluetooth devices" control panel applet and follow the Apple instructions provided on Page 18 of the guide referred to earlier. Start with the mouse first. Stop when done with the mouse and don't continue on to the keyboard yet.
9. At this point my mouse was "installed" but did not show "connected" in the bluetooth devices applet. I then highlighted the mouse and clicked the "properties" button down to the right.
10. Once in the properties of the mouse I selected the "services" tab. My issue before making the switch to "Local System" account for the Bluetooth services was then when I tried to click the check box to enable "Drivers for keyboard, mice, etc (HID)" I would get an "access denied" error. Now that the switch has been made you should be able to click that check box without error. Click OK after enabling.
11. You will suddenly see systray (lower right of the screen where the clock is) saying that new hardware has been detected and enabled. Once this is all done you will see "connected" below the device in the Bluetooth applet. Give your mouse a go. It should be working now. Sweet!
12. Follow the steps in the Apple guide for your keyboard. This should work too now. Sweet!
Best of luck.

It depends on how far it is and how thick your walls are. If there plasterboard partitions and only 10 feet apart then probably.
If you have a mobile phone with bluetooth, then try sending the computer a picture of file from similar distances to that you intend using the keyboard, if it works then a bluetooth keyboard and mouse should.

If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.
